Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Can continuation passing style code perform well?
This won't be a very deep answer, but to connect with the original post, programming in CPS is more closely related to delimited continuations than call/cc is because the continuations are just ordinary functions in the host language, unlike call/cc continuations which are a bit more complex.
As for why delimited continuations are not more popular, many people find shift/reset a bit difficult to program with. In particular the type systems for them are a bit odd and some variants like prompt/control don't have nice type systems for them. Currently, the closely related notion of (algebraic) effect handlers is quite popular in the functional language design community as something quite similar in expressive power but more intuitive for programming and with very natural typing. The Koka language has a lot of nice introductory resources if you are interested in learning more: https://github.com/koka-lang/koka . There's even a serious proposal for adding something based on these to webassembly: https://github.com/effect-handlers/wasm-effect-handlers .

The IMPOSSIBLE RISCV HACK: Vector Extension 0.7.1-draft w/ current Linux kernel! – René Rebe
I'd love to see OpenCL or WasmSIMD support for RVV 071.

WASM vs Native Rust performance
Wasm SIMD supports only 128-bit registers, no? https://github.com/WebAssembly/simd/blob/a78b98a6899c9e91a13095e560767af6e99d98fd/proposals/simd/SIMD.md

A Look at Performance in Wasmtime and Cranelift
According to the WebAssembly Roadmap, the 128-bit packed SIMD Extension proposal has been accepted and is already implemented in every major runtime except Safari, and the Relaxed SIMD proposal is planned, with Firefox already having an experimental implementation in nightly-channel builds.

There are many like it, but this is my Rust raytracer running in WebAssembly
Thanks! You're probably right about spatial filtering with a low sphere count. SIMD is supported, that looks to work in every recent browser except Safari. Looking forward to trying that out. A really quick search of wasm-bindgen docs don't reveal an interface to use that SIMD support though. I wonder if you can unsafely inline some raw wasm like you can with asm!
